About Me

Hi I'm originally from Tokyo, living in Taupo, New Zealand. I happened to be around Yudanaka for work between Nov 2016 - Feb 2017. I found it very hard to get some information that I needed before getting there. So I thought I may as well put everything I found out together here for anyone planning a trip over to this region. I hope this site will be a help in any form and be a time-saver for you. Thanks for visiting, and please feel free to ask any question if you want to find out something about this area, I'll try to find out for you!

It is also a gateway to one of the largest ski area in Japan, Shiga Kogen 志賀高原. Shiga Kogen is actually a group of 19 of small resorts next to each other. Not much in vertical sense but it is very wide across and may take a whole day to go from one end to the other.

It can be said that this area is still quite “undeveloped” for overseas travellers, that means you can still have a true Japanese experience where you meet locals who don’t really speak English at all or you won’t see many English signs, a sort of like “Lost In Translation” experience.

This site is designed in blog-post style so it will be quicker and easier for you to find what you want by either searching keywords or going through categories or tags.

I hope you will find some useful information when you are planning your trip over here!
